2 Men In Louisiana Use A Cannon To Launch Drugs Into Prison
2 men in Louisiana were busted attempting to smuggle $200K worth of contraband into a federal prison using a cannon to get it over the wall! That’s crazy!
The incident happened in Grant Parish, Louisiana. Reports say 2 men from Colorado were arrested for attempting to smuggle drugs into the federal prison. But that’s not the wildest part about all of this. They were reportedly using a cannon to get it into the prison! 18-year-old Jose Francisco Herrera Munoz and 19-year-old Angel Gonzales Gutierrez (both from Greely, Colorado) have been arrested for Attempting To Introduce Contraband into a Penal Institution and Attempting To Distribute Methamphetamine, per KRDO. You can see their mugshots and a video report about the case shared by KALB on YouTube below.
2 Men Use A Cannon To Launch Drugs Into Federal Prison
KRDO reports that the 2 men attempted to smuggle $112K worth of tobacco and $89,5000 worth of methamphetamine into a federal prison using a cannon. Reports say the men planned to use a cannon propelled by compressed air to launch the items over a security fence and onto the prison grounds, per KRDO. The cannon had the ability to send things over 350 feet!
I’ve never heard of anything like this! It didn’t work this time but maybe one day something like this will be able to work. Gutsy move from a couple of teenagers! Have to imagine they were trying to help someone pretty powerful in there.
5 of the Craziest Cringeworthy Crimes Ever Committed
While committing crimes may seem black and white (you either broke the law or you didn’t), there are certainly some crimes that are dumber than others. Sometimes it’s the crime itself that’s wild, other times, it’s the people committing said crimes. These are 5 of the craziest, cringeworthy crimes ever committed.
Crimes can happen anywhere, anytime, to anyone. However, it takes a very unique individual, a case study if you will, to commit some of these outrageously dumb crimes. Years ago, these criminals would have been featured on Spike TV or one of those America’s Dumbest Criminal shows. Today, I’m not sure if those shows are around…and I’m certain Spike TV isn’t around anymore. That’s a story for another time.

Craziest Crimes
Crimes can happen for a number of reasons. They may happen out of necessity. They could also happen on accident. These crimes, however, do not fall into those categories. These crimes are different. None of these would accidentally happen. They also aren’t a matter of life or death. There’s no ethics quiz here, or any matters of ‘would you steal bread to support your family?’ These crimes, and criminals, aren’t straight up cringeworthy.
While all of these crimes are crazy and certainly cringeworthy, they also make for excellent conversation pieces. That’s why I’ve gone and found five examples of the wildest stories that Dave and Chuck the Freak have talked about and made a list highlighting the best of the best. Let’s be honest…what’s better than reading a story about one of the craziest crimes ever committed? Or, watching Dave and Chuck the Freak talk about some of the dumbest crimes ever committed? Personally, I’m going with the funny storytellers.
They add their own two cents and perspectives on these stories that nobody else could provide. Not even those talking heads on the dumbest criminal shows. Am I the only one who remembers those? I feel like they were a staple on TruTV or VH1, but now all I can find on TruTV is Impractical Jokers, which is awesome but…you get it. Let’s not delay! Here’s the list!
